At this moment Governor Harris rode up from the right, elated with his own success, and with the vindication of his Tennesseeans. After a few words, General Johnston sent him with an orderston that morning as he rode off, that if it should be necessary to communicate with him or for him to do anything, he would be found in his ambulance in bed. Governor Harris, knowing this, and how feeble General Beauregard's health was, went first to his headquarters— just in the rear of where the army had deployed into line the eal Beauregard that General Johnston had been killed. Beauregard expressed regret, and then remarked, Everything else seems to be going on well on the right. Governor Harris assented. Then, said Beauregard, the battle may as well go on.

Though, as General Hood states in his book, page 273, I was averse to his going into Tennessee, he might well assume that I was not, as General Beauregard and himself, acquainted with the true condition of the army when they decided on the Tennessee campaign. Of the manner in which he conducted it, Isham G. Harris, the governor of Tennessee, a man of whose judgment, integrity, and manhood I had the highest opinion, wrote to me, on December 25, 1864: . . . I have been with General Hood from the beginning of this campaign, and beg to say, disastrous as it has ended, I am not able to see anything that General Hood has done that he should not, or neglected any thing that he should, have done, . . . and regret to say that, if all had performed their parts as well as he, the results would have been
